many of my engineering colleagues are not doing what they specialized in school - many still stay in the field of engineering though. even to that extent, many get in to management, business development etc where there is little to no engineering involved.
i'm the same, 3 years of design in tech i changed industries, and changed gears again
now i do zero technical work but my education / experience helps me in my role so i wouldn't call my education a waste
